Kind of fell of a cliff with the organization. I remember Jarmo and co. saying he had a chance to compete for 4th line center duty a few years ago, and he broke his wrist in training camp. Haven't heard from him since, and his play seems to have plateaued.

Korostelev is extended and greg moore is signed to a two-way contract, seem like an echl guy that can't maintain an ahl game. Cockerill, Desalvo, Gallant, Wade are Cleveland remaining ufa

The fans really like Gallant. Whenever he is in the lineup they look forward to him fighting. I would like to see them bring Broadhurst back as he is unrestricted an Winnipeg hasn't re-signed him. He is a solid ahl guy.

he's probably looking at europe considering he was paid 375k last year and I think he has more chance to get something similar in europe. Gallant probably cost pucks.

I think Broadhurst would easily get 375 if not a little more. I wouldn't be surprised if Gallant got 500 or 600 seeing he signed for 2 years. Staying in the ahl would be better because if Broadhurst improves like he has been, and a team needs a 4th line player quick, the nhl is a lot closer over here. He has been a solid player here so I hope they sign him. If not, no biggie.

contract over 200k in the ahl are not that common that's why player leave for europe. they dont hand them out like candy. only gerbe dalpe clendening and simpson are in that category for the monsters but they had 8 last year so I guess they could add some more

I get they don't just hand out those contracts in the ahl, but the fact is Broadhurst has improved every year he has been here, as a season ticket holder I still want the team to be competitve and he is a solid vet. They signed Gallant because the off chance he might fight will put people in the seats. The fact is he doesn't play much and to sign a guy like that and not offer Broadhurst isn't very smart. I think the fights are entertaining, but I like less fighting and better hockey. I do not miss the goon lines and prefer 4 lines of quality players.

after a rumor at the start of the summer Anton Karlsson finaly sign with cleveland.
Good size defensive D with Character. Maybe he can impress at Columbus camp and get an nhl deal but it's still sweet to see him in cleveland.

Is he a defenseman? Elite prospects has him as a winger/center. We could always use a defenseman.

Anton Karlsson at eliteprospects.com
theres probably like 50 anton karlsson on eliteprospect. was a good defenseman in the shl so he should be fine in the ahl. not a lot of european try the ahl directly he must really have a dream to play in the nhl.

That's funny with the name thing. Actually the Anton Karlsson I was looking at has a brother Erik Karlsson. Not much for different names for hockey players in europe. Aren't there two Sebatian Aho's also.
There's also two Josh Anderson's and a Joey Anderson. Elite prospects also lists three Artyom Anisimov's. Seems like a universal issue.

And there were two Alexandre Picards. And EP has four guys named Craig Smith and two guys named Seth Jones. Plenty of examples.

What, me worry?
Monsters and Jackets re-up their affiliation. Good to see, but it was no surprise.

Glad they re-signed to stay in Cleveland. Really enjoy going to the games and like watching players make the next step. It is nice also to be able to make the trip to Columbus to see the guys that came from here, and to see the NHL. Although sometimes the AHL games do have an NHL feel, there are some games you wonder if you are watching the ECHL.
